Am I a lap behind? But to face doom in a sock-stenched room all by myself Is the kind of fate I never contemplate Lots of people would cry though none spring to mind D Know what it's like To sigh at the sight of the first quarter of life? Bm D Every stopped to think and found out nothing was there? E A They laugh to see such fun Bm D Playing Blind Man's Bluff all by myself A And they're chanting a line from a nursery rhyme E D "Ba Ba Bleary Eyes - Have you any idea?" A E A E The calendar's cluttered with days that are numbered THIS IS PRETTY MUCH CORRECT. HOPE PEOPLE USE IT. SEND CORRECTIONS AND COMMENTS TO ET-LEE@UX4.CSO.UIUC.EDU GENE
